The First Marine Vapor Recovery Unit in France: Carbovac and TotalEnergies combine their expertise in Donges

Carbovac of ALMA GROUP is proud to have supported the @TotalEnergies Platform in #Donges in the commissioning of the 1st marine Vapor Recovery Unit (URV) in France, installed on the site of the refinery in #Donges (Loire-Atlantique).

💨 This new installation allows for the recovery and reuse of gasoline vapors during ship loading and unloading operations, which were previously released into the atmosphere, thus contributing to a significant reduction in VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions.

👉 A technical challenge

👉 An environmental commitment

👉 And above all, a human adventure

👏 A concrete and innovative project for the Carbovac teams of ALMA GROUP which illustrates the common desire of Carbovac and the TotalEnergies Platform of #Donges to develop ever more responsible and sustainable industrial solutions.

Behind this success:

✅ Constant exchanges between our experts and the teams at the TotalEnergies platform in Donges

✅ Engineers, technicians, operators involved in the field.

✅ A shared ambition: to combine industrial performance and respect for the environment.

We are proud to have participated in this major project, a first in France, and to continue, together, to build solutions for a more sustainable future. 🌱
